Christmas activities

We have been busy this month with an abundance of activities. Here are a few highlights:

Sinter Klaas at the Croxalls, our third year. So much fun as always. Ian at Sinter Klaas. He ate the traditional dinner: sausage and potatoes w/sauerkraut. The Sinter Klaas gifts. I think our gifts (far left) win least original this year. But our poems were pretty good.
The Reindog parade at the botanical garden. We went last year and were excited to have the Croxalls along with us this year. People dress their dogs up in holiday garb and parade them around the gardens. It was freezing; I only took one picture.
Playgroup birthday party. Lisa hosted an amazing event for the December birthdays, with a Nutcracker theme. Here's Audrey with her individualized cake.
